Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The 1st floor unit at 10738 S Champlain Ave in Pullman, owned by Cynthia Lewis, is an 1888 construction that has experienced several significant issues in recent years. Most notably, in June 2026, there were multiple incidents of water intrusion, with two basement water complaints filed within a day of each other. The property has ongoing sewer maintenance needs, with both open and closed inspection requests recorded in June 2026. Additional maintenance concerns have included garbage cart maintenance (April 2026) and recycling pickup issues (March 2026). The building has a history of environmental concerns, including an air pollution work order in 2014 that was referred to the Building Department for investigation. In May 2011, there were two administrative hearing violations, one for the municipal code 7-28-080 (which typically pertains to health-related issues) and another under code 11/4/2190, both resulting in $700 fines, though the disposition statuses differ between N (not guilty) and L (guilty). While the building's documented history includes a mix of service requests and violations, the most pressing current issue appears to be the recurring water and sewer problems, particularly given the recent pattern of complaints and inspection requests.

Risk rating

How 10738 S Champlain Ave 1Stfl's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of Chicago code enforcement data — building violations, 311 complaint history, environmental enforcement, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that the City of Chicago will find a code violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
